| yay. its almost over. i assume everyone will be like " ZOMFG PRES WAS A MAID!!! WHY WASNT I HERE EARLIER :(" |
Dont bother replying to my posts in forums, dont check them afterwards. |
| That was a HOT way of feeding that chocolate. I like Misaki's confidence at the end of this chapter though. “I can do this proudly”. Damn right girl. |
 |
| im so sad that this manga series is about to end.i want to see how misaki story plays out as she finally reviews to people that she works at a maid restaurant and im guessing the final panel of the manga is going to show misaki and usui kissing or doing something.i really hope that they announce a second season of the anime in the last chapter as i really like the first season and this series as a whole.sucks that i cant buy the manga collection in english since tokyopop is no longer publishing in the US. |
| This chapter was a substantial improvement over the dreadful one that preceded it, and, on it’s own right, it was pretty damn satisfying, but several unavoidable flaws continue to linger in Fujiwara’s approach to the conclusion of Usui and Misaki’s story. As such, it wasn’t quite as compelling and well-written as the first two chapters of this arc, due largely to it’s unexpectedly fleeting length. Thankfully however, it still possessed a rather beneficial balance within the isolated narrative of the chapter as a whole, particularly evident throughout the latter half. I really enjoyed the momentary reappearance of Kuuga and Sakura’s relationship, since, aside from the extra chapter that merely illuminated a fragment of their romantic development, it has been woefully absent throughout much of the story, despite it’s relevance. Of course, the same could be said for nearly every single narrative thread that doesn’t directly relate to either Usui or, in particular, Misaki, since, though Fujiwara’s writing is typically impressive, her approach to the development of the secondary characters throughout the story has been quite disappointing, to say the least. Misaki and Usui’s romantic moment was, along with the ending, one of the highlights of the chapter, beautifully portraying their ever-deepening intimacy. This aspect of the story has rarely faltered, as nearly every single interaction between them has been exceptionally well-illustrated and nuanced. Once again, Fujiwara deceptively teased them finally having sex without actually indulging that long-anticipated development, which, following the plethora of similarly subtle encounters between them throughout the latter half of the story, is certainly a bit frustrating, but, since she still managed to convey so much romantic depth and passion with nearly every flourish of this particular interaction, I can’t be too irritated at the absence of an inevitability. Misaki’s conversation with her father was refreshingly uninterrupted, and yet, at the same time, it was also disappointingly littered with Misaki’s repetitious bouts of stubborn indignation at the father that continues to arduously support his family and, most importantly, Misaki herself, only ever offering her assistance and advice, all while he perpetually yearns for the smallest bit of reciprocated kindness. Though I understand her hesitance to fully accept and eventually forgive the father that effectively abandoned her (albeit for entirely altruistic reasons), this seeming inability to even begrudgingly acknowledge her own father’s existence is quite saddening and petty, particularly since the majority of their potentially beautiful conversations are hastily silenced by Misaki’s childish tendencies. The conclusion to this chapter was a rather intriguing cliffhanger of sorts, as the revelation of her secret to the students of Seika has always been an inevitable and integral element within her development. The montage of Misaki’s reverie immediately prior to the final page was excellent, culminating with the succinctly illustrated realization that her life as a maid and as the president of Seika aren’t actually two disparate identities, but that they are, in fact, two halves of a cohesive and complex whole. However, though I certainly enjoy the finalistic nature of this development, it isn’t nearly as interesting and essential to the narrative as it once would have been, especially since her job at maid latte has become so disappointingly ancillary in the latter half of the story. Though I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the majority of this arc, it’s become disappointingly obvious that, as a whole, it won’t be quite as satisfying and comprehensive as I was hoping, illuminated even further by the unexpected repetition and the pointless prevalence of comedic antics, which consistently displays, most of all, an unfortunate lack of focus within the story. This, in turn, has indicated a partial inability for the myriad of character and narrative resolutions to be properly addressed. Of course, should the final chapter be followed by several short stories that satisfyingly explore Usui and Misaki’s future, along with a focus on a few of the more compelling supporting characters, then this criticism will likely become somewhat diminished. Despite the noticeable decline in quality following the 57th chapter, I’m cautiously looking forward to the ending of what was once my favorite shoujo. Hopefully the resolution to Misaki and Usui’s story will be appropriately romantic and satisfyingly conclusive. Unfortunately, due to the restrained nature of the narrative at the moment, even a glimpse of Usui and Misaki’s wedding in the final chapter seems less and less likely. If that particularly grandiose and romantically significant moment does, in fact, remain absent, a time-skip that depicts a vignette of Usui and Misaki’s future together following their imminent, yet strangely indistinct, separation is rather essential. Anything else would likely seem terribly incomplete and unnecessarily vague. |

| Loved the choco feeding <3 Now that's what I call a valentine gift XD As usual Blushing Misaki always gets to me <3 Finally she reveals herself. Let's see how her friends react hehe. |
 |
| I got so sad when I have read that the next episode will be the last... |
 |
| That was a good chapter, her reflections and deciding to reveal it herself instead of being found out are appreciated. Loved Usui with the chocolate :) |
 |
| So... I thought some students will discover Misa's secret, but was totally different from I imagined. And next chapter is the final. NOOOOO, I'll will miss this manga, althought I can read it again from the beginning. |
| Sob... After watching the anime a few days ago, I practically rushed through the manga starting from chapter 35 all the way to chapter 84. And found out that chapter 85 would be the last chapter in the series D: Yay for Misaki revealing herself as a maid to her schoolmates :D |
- I've always... always been watching you... This whole time... Because you were there... That's why I was able to try hard. So you could have some balance! So you wouldn't treat me like a kid! So you would see me as an actual girl! Even while you were gone... You were right here! You were right here in my heart! |
| That was quite a way of giving chocolate, not something that I hadn't thought about before. They way this chapter ended could very well be the end of the manga here, but at least there's one more. Never thought that she would reveal the secret. |
| Awwwwn, I almost shed a tear at that last page :') Seeing Misaki overcome that complex she had and just accepting it, with the help of her father, that was adorable :3 I was waiting for that moment where she would tell everyone her secret. Again, it's another hard secret to tell, even more than she's dating Usui. Maid are often seen as submitive object, seeing the demon president in that outfit could bring prejudice in some people minds. Those flashback also made me realize how much Misaka design have changed since the beginning :O She look less childish. But if I remember, around two years have passed right? |

| Esse capítulo foi muito mais significativo que o anterior, estou impressionado. Mesmo depois de conquistar algo que ela se desgastou tanto para obter, a antiga presidente não se deixa levar pela moleza. Isso me deixa bastante frustrado, você deveria comemorar suas conquistas, Misaki! As palavras do Usui estão cada vez mais carinhosas, sempre com a pretensão de extrair o lado mais honesto da Misaki. A entrega do chocolate também foi surpreendente, Usui sempre provocando de modo picante. Essa foi uma ótima conclusão, Misaki não é mais a presidente, ela deve quebrar suas muralhas para seguir em frente de maneira orgulhosa. Todo o conflito psicológico e as memórias revisitadas foram emocionantes para mim. Kaichou foi uma das minhas primeiras experiências no mundo dos animes, uma experiência que por muito tempo tive dificuldades de concluir, por mais que os últimos arcos não tenham sido tão significativos, toda essa jornada me marcou e foi difícil conter as lágrimas nesse momento em especifico. // This chapter was much more significant than the previous one, I am impressed. Even after conquering something that she has worn out so much to obtain, the former president does not allow herself to be taken for granted. It makes me very frustrated, you should celebrate your achievements, Misaki! Usui's words are increasingly affectionate, always with the intention of extracting the most honest side of Misaki. The delivery of the chocolate was also surprising, Usui always provoking in a spicy way. That was a great conclusion, Misaki is no longer the president, she must break her walls to move on proudly. All the psychological conflict and the revisited memories were exciting for me. Kaichou was one of my first experiences in the anime world, an experience that for a long time I had difficulty completing, even though the last arcs were not so significant, this whole journey marked me and it was difficult to contain the tears at that specific moment. (Sorry for my english) |
